GazHilarant Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 Quote On 3 June 2016, Pink Floyd Records will begin the reintroduction of the complete Pink Floyd catalogue on vinyl, making it available for the first time in over two decades, with the release of the first four albums: ‘The Piper at the Gates of Dawn’, ‘A Saucerful of Secrets’, the soundtrack from the film ‘More’ and the 2 LP set ‘Ummagumma’. Special care has been taken to replicate the original packaging, and the first batch of releases, mastered by James Guthrie, Joel Plante and Bernie Grundman, will be pressed on 180gram vinyl for optimum sound quality. Pink Floyd Records will release further titles from the vinyl catalogue throughout the year, with release dates being announced at regular intervals. In the meantime, all Pink Floyd albums are now available on CD, digital and most streaming platforms. I must admit I am very excited to own a proper Piper at the gates of dawn and More. Out for order on Amazon now https://www.amazon.co.uk/Piper-At-Gates-Dawn-VINYL/dp/B01DSV6UP6/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1462542937&sr=8-3&keywords=pink+floyd+vinyl https://www.amazon.co.uk/More-VINYL-PINK-FLOYD/dp/B01DSV6WEA/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1462542937&sr=8-4&keywords=pink+floyd+vinyl https://www.amazon.co.uk/Saucerful-Secrets-VINYL-PINK-FLOYD/dp/B01DSV6VYQ/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1462542937&sr=8-5&keywords=pink+floyd+vinyl https://www.amazon.co.uk/Ummagumma-VINYL-PINK-FLOYD/dp/B01DSV6W68/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1462542937&sr=8-6&keywords=pink+floyd+vinyl ghjghj 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GazHilarant Posted May 6, 2016 Author Share Posted May 6, 2016 Apparently they are doing others in July, I am really hoping for Meddle though. These are apparently done from the original tapes so the sound quality should be top notch.

webdoggy Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 Sweet. I'll need to pick up a copy of Piper at the Gates and Saucerful of Secrets. I've been able to find legitimate/clean copies of every other album besides those. Have only been able to get a copy of them in A Nice Pair. These reissues are long overdo.

throughbeingcruel Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 I own no Floyd vinyl so this is great. I love that the prices aren't fucked like The Wall and WYWH. Good albums, but $40-$50 is dumb. Hopefully those drop in price or cheaper copies come along with these new issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whoshotthefrog Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 I have a few 1st presses of these, but the ones I don't I'm definitely going to buy. Thanks for posting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are the only 2 that have eluded me. They are next to impossible to find where i live. EDIT - PIPER not on amazon.ca yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glass realms Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 Pre-ordered all 4 from Amazon UK to get locked in on those prices. The prices for Piper and Saucerful are great for what 180g reissues normally go for. Hopefully, the price will drop before the release date. If these show up cheaper on Amazon US, I'll just cancel my UK order. I have OG pressings of Meddle and Dark Side and a 70s pressing of Piper, as well as the reissues of Wish You Were Here and The Wall from a few years back.

I've held off on buying a few times due to "grading" from sellers. That's one thing that worries me the most. Now, I do have an original press of Animals that's in pretty great condition I bought off a co-worker when I first started collecting. It's got some noise, but nothing a really deep clean wouldn't fix. I also purchased an excellent copy of The Wall from @JoToRoBo some time back.

KnowNothing Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 16 hours ago, nathan_s82 said: I would love to get a Box Set from Start to Finish (Piper to Endless River). A couple of years ago I got The Pink Floyd Collection off of ebay. It had the studio albums up to The Wall, with Piper and Saucerful omitted in favor of A Nice Pair. Definitely worth looking up if you want a large hunk of the collection right off the bat. All the albums are housed in a Wall style box and sound great. Not 180 gram, but still nice clean copies. That being said, I can't wait to pick up Piper, Saucerful, The Final Cut, and Momentary Lapse to complete my collection. Would also love a pressing of Relics.

webdoggy Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 Soundstage is the only place from the states that I have found these listed, and they are 29.99 for the single LPs and 39.99 for Ummagumma. WTF? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
